520 1 $a"Londinium, Britannia, A.D. 211. A city of slum tenements and sumptuous villas, of orgy queens, drag queens, and drama queens. A city where the currency is often sex, where children go to work at age five, where marriage is a career move. In this bustling city lives Zuleika, the feisty, precocious daughter of Sudanese immigrants-made-good.
520 8 $aMarried off at eleven to a rich Roman who is three times her age and usually away on business, Zuleika drifts about his beautiful villa, bored, or sneaks out to see her old friends. Several years pass and still she craves passion, excitement, love, - and an outlet for her restless creativity. Then one night at the theater, she catches the eye of the visiting Roman Emperor Septimius Severus."--BOOK JACKET.
